Learning From the Past

As part of a study on historical information, a group of second-graders at Frank J. Carasiti Elementary School had the opportunity to step back in time and take a look at an original type of technology.

With the help of speech language therapist Kelly Goelz, the students read a newspaper article about typewriters and learned how an article provides information for who, what, where, why and when. They also discussed the similarities and differences between modern day computers and old-fashioned typewriters.
